Our Focus
Our Focus
We focus on three areas where federal leadership makes the greatest difference for every American family.
01 · Focus Area
Education & Civic Future
Break the ceiling. Lead in public service.
Education has been the path to opportunity for generations of American families, including Asian American families. Yet today, many Americans — and Asian Americans in particular — face a persistent glass ceiling in both the private and public sectors: often the most educated and hardworking, yet the least represented in leadership, executive roles, and elected office. We support leaders who value excellence and equal access, and who actively open pathways for all Americans to pursue promotion and leadership in public service careers and elected positions, from school boards to the halls of Congress.
What We Look For in Candidates
- High academic standards and fair, merit-based opportunity for every student
- Breaking the glass ceiling: pathways to promotion and leadership for all Americans in public service
- Civics education, including the history of all Americans who built this nation
- Recruiting, training, and supporting Americans from every background to run for elected office
02 · Focus Area
Immigration & Opportunity
Equal rights, a secure nation.
Most Asian Americans are immigrants or the children of immigrants. We know firsthand what America offers to those who come here lawfully to work, build, and belong. We support leaders who pursue an immigration system that is lawful, orderly, and fair: one that secures the border, closes loopholes, attracts talent, keeps families together, and guarantees equal protection and rights to legal immigrants who follow the rules.
What We Look For in Candidates
- Equal protection and full rights for legal immigrants who follow the law
- Securing the border and closing loopholes that undermine the legal immigration system
- A modern legal immigration system, including reducing long green card and family visa backlogs
- Welcoming the students, scientists, and professionals who strengthen American competitiveness
03 · Focus Area
Economic Security
Build. Own. Prosper.
American families have built small businesses on Main Streets across the country, from restaurants and dry cleaners to technology start-ups and manufacturers. Yet too many entrepreneurs — including Asian women, veterans, and legal immigrants — still face unequal access to capital, contracts, and the networks that turn a small business into a lasting enterprise. We support leaders who fight to expand real opportunity for all Americans — not just in words but in contracts, capital, and policy — so that every entrepreneur can compete, grow, and build wealth for the next generation.
What We Look For in Candidates
- Expanded access to capital and federal contracting for women-, veteran-, and legal immigrant-owned businesses
- Aid and assistance programs that help entrepreneurs from every background start, sustain, and scale their businesses
- Accountable set-aside programs that reach all underserved entrepreneurs, not just in name but in dollars
- Policies that help families save, own homes, and build lasting wealth
- Fiscal responsibility and a competitive American economy
